Sam Asghari is reflecting on his "fairy tale" wedding.

The actor appeared on Good Morning America to promote his new film Hot Seat, which also stars Mel Gibson, but took a minute to share how he felt when he and Britney Spears said 'I Do' earlier this month.

Smiling from ear to ear, Asghari joked, "I have to wear this thing now," as he played with his new piece of jewellery. "It's heavy, so I'm getting a workout."

The model then said, "It's just surreal, man. It's been a minute. It was way overdue for us, and we imagined this thing being a fairy tale for us, and it was."

Spears revealed in a June 2021 court hearing that she wanted marriage and a baby with Asghari but claimed she was not allowed due to the constraints of her conservatorship, which was dissolved in November after 13 years.

The couple tied the knot on 9 June in an intimate ceremony at the bride's home in Thousand Oaks, California.

Several A-list stars were on hand to celebrate the happy couple, including Madonna, Selena Gomez, Drew Barrymore, and Paris Hilton.
